Yes! Two each year? That means this has been going for 8 years! Hard to believe... Where does time go? 🧐

I'm in, and happy to be captain!

[Susan]

I would love to join in again. I have always played along in this challenge and other challenges that is in this group but in Sept my mom started back down the chemo road and it was such a struggle to keep any of my challenge obligations. I was kind of a mess. I was tired all the time and I basically had to quit doing what I love most, CHALLENGES. I was removed because I was late responding and I had never been removed before.

I'm happy to say my mom is off chemo and doing as well as any 80 year old cancer survivor (twice, this lady survived cancer twice)

I had another blow happen while I was dealing with my mom's chemo. My husband lost his job and it was a hard blow to our family. He has a job he starts this coming Monday so that is also a huge weight lifted off my shoulders.

I sure hope I can play along again. I loved the challenges this group holds. I would was to bogged down to miss it but now that I feel like I can breath again I feel excited to join challenges all over again.

I hope I can play on a team with all of you. If not I understand

[Jane]

I’m in!! Couch sloucher for me

Hi Susan - glad to hear you and your mother are in a much better space. You let me know of your issues last year, so you are fine to rejoin again for this round :)

[Susan]

Thank you so much Jane

[Susan]

In other words, use me as a last resort, March is crazy busy for me at work.

Count me in please, Jane.

[Jane (PS), Moderator]

Sorry Team Captains - I'm trying to get your threads up, but GR is playing Silly-B&ggers and won't let me post any more threads :(

[Roger - president of NBR United -]

Sorry to hear that, Jane. Technology is great except when it isn't.

[Jane (PS), Moderator]

So right Roger.

There must be some limiting thing going on. I can only load 3 teams at a time and then have to wait. Not sure what the wait time is, but maybe an hour?

I'll keep plugging away...

Captains for Teams 1-6 can jump in and reserve posts :
1 Louise
2 CB
3 KarenH
4 Diane
5 Lisa
6 KathyD

[Sally906]

It’s been limiting bulk thread creations for weeks - took me all day to post 12 new threads in the new year in a small group I mod. Drove me spare!

Thanks Jane! I need to remember this issue when TART Challenge starts up again. I had problems the last time, I couldn't post any new thread - but Karen was able to post them all. Probably a different problem... 🤷🏻‍♀️

[Jane (PS), Moderator]

D'oh - have to add the 3 other messages before you hop in!! Trying to cook a cake at the same time 😋

***Edit***
Done :)

Yes - its probably happened to me before since the restriction seems to have been in place for a bit but I have the memory of a goldfish, so I've likely forgotten ;)

I think that anyone who has librarian privileges gets to make more threads than the rest of us. 😏
